New Art in Clark Library: Come See!

July 19, 2019

The Clark Library’s newest group study room, Room 213, recently received some finishing touches with the addition of three paintings and a small display. A trio of abstract paintings which now grace the wall were created by former library dean Drew Harrington, who has been pursuing artistic interests in retirement. The paintings depict Haystack Rock at Oregon’s Cannon Beach. There are also two display cases featuring artifacts from the University Museum. Currently, a bit of technology history is on display: 1980s Mac computers previously used on campus. The room has a comfortable, lounge-like vibe and can be reserved by students, staff, or faculty for group use at library.up.edu/rooms.

Aziz Inan, Shiley School of Engineering, had articles on palindrome dates published on nbcnewyork.com, KOIN.com, pamplinmedia.com, and BYUradio. He notes: “Many news sources reported wrong information regarding palindrome dates and the 10-day palindrome week this week and next. They made the claim that this one is the last to occur in this century. They based it on the TimeandDate.com website and Farmer’s Almanac website, which were both incorrect. I contacted some of them letting them know about this error and for example, the Seattle Times corrected their article.”
